A Christian Guide to Business Leadership
PEET VAN BILJON & JAMES C SPROUSE
How can traditional Christian teachings help business leaders to align their daily business decisions more closely with their faith and thereby contribute to a transformation of the business world into one that is more people-centric than profit-centric? That’s what Peet van Biljon and James C Sprouse address in their new book.
Business decisions greatly affect the lives of employees, customers, suppliers, and society at large. In pursuit of profits, businesses may underpay and overwork employees, use unethical sales techniques, sell dangerous products to vulnerable consumers, cut costs so it harms people, and take other questionable actions that while legal, do not conform to Christian values.
It doesn’t have to be this way. In this new guide you will learn and be challenged to make better choices based on Biblical values. By placing detailed analyses of core business practices side by side with Biblical texts and guidance, this book identifies many potential areas for improvement.
Whether it is providing a framework to navigate the challenges of automation and globalization, or advocating for fair employee compensation, Profit with a Higher Purpose connects the world of modern business with that of faith.
